    This car recently on "what my car's worth?" I assume that the seller is the auction winner. Winner won car for about 78k. Flipping it at $125. Sad, but that's business.

    Interesting note: on the show they praised how original and untouched the interior was. Seat seemed recovered, actually no, they were...headrest were different from the upper seats. So, they must have had it Armor All'd :).
    Also, when did they do away with the perforation on the S3 front seats?

    Well we know it's no longer available but that eBay listing doesn't indicate that it was sold for that amount.

    Those front seats have been recovered, rears are perfed. Black hides a lot. That engine compartment and lord knows what else has been "restored". it's a clean looking car but it also has those bumpers ...

    oil pressure is depending only on rpm, Lambo manual says it must be at least 6bar at 6000rpm.

    What's with the RH A pillar? It looks a bit like there's no upholstery covering it?
    The dash top insert is typically warped too.
    Ah the joys of Espada ownership.

    Was hoping it would have brought more to keep up with the recent shenanigans.

    57K seems like a shenanigan friendly price. The car was partially disassembled, rusty and rough. It will take a mountain of money and time to make it right based only what the pictures in the ad showed. Who knows how expensive the less visible needs will be.

    Unless you provide a link a post like that is useless.
    I have no idea what car you're talking about?

    Thanks.

    Odd that it doesn't show up on my search list in eBay now?

    Yes that one is a bit of a risk but at least it has the bumpers!

    How can the post be useless when it states the actual selling price of an Espada on eBay, the model year + the series version?
    Anybody can easily find the specific ad on eBay if they are slightly interested in Espadas.
    Because it doesn't show up on your computer that doesn't mean the provided info is useless to others. Probably the posting was not meant for you anyway.

    For some reason when an auction ends, there seems to be a period of time before it shows up under "completed listings". Sometime a half day to 2 days.

    When I search it is not there. When the specific link is provided I can.

    QED.

    It's always best to provide full reference. I'm not picking on you just stating the facts.
    I really cannot find that car on eBay when I search. All the others show up.

    Get angry with eBay, in the mean time document your references.

    By incidence the current owner appeared on another forum few weeks ago. The car looks original but unused for the last years. I'll write you a PM with details.

    does anyone have a line on where to get one ?
    if not can someone lend theirs to a friend of mine in Michigan USA who is a prominent restorer of Italian cars. Id rather not ay who publicly to protect his privacy at the moment .
    he can have a bunch made easlily but need one original to measure up and take a mold of . He has done this for the Pantera guys and absolutely NO!!!! damage to the handle or any other part including the writing on it etc ....
    whomever the trusting volunteer is will get a free one to keep or do whatever they want with ...



    Any takers ?

    ? I think that may be a case of older versus new tool kits?

    My tool bags look nothing like yours.
